Metro Gray vs Princess
Metro Gray and Princess come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Metro Gray belongs to the grey family and Princess to the pink-red family. The 27-point LRV gap — 58 for Metro Gray vs 31 for Princess — means Metro Gray will open up a space more effectively. Where Metro Gray leans yellow, Princess reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 32.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
